Papa Don never fails me! I’ve been coming here for two years and my fav meal is the Korean kimchi soup (seafood version) with rice. It is delicious everytime! Opted for the baby squid with spicy mayo as a side this time, and it’s such a beautiful sweet and spicy medley. One of the best Korean spots I’ve found in Manchester. Highly recommend 💯
Absolutely disgusting paid £40 for 3 meals got Thai style chicken rice thought it was a curry looked like left over chicken from a Sunday roast but worse,and ordered 2 Korean beef brisket and it was so fatty the beef rice starchy will never order again waste of money
My visit to this "cafe" was solely for their Thai offerings, and regrettably, the experience fell far short of expectations. What was served was, simply put, some of the worst Thai food I have ever tasted. The most significant issue lies in authenticity and flavor. For anyone familiar with traditional Thai cuisine, the dishes here will be deeply disappointing, lacking the characteristic balance of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy notes that define the cooking style. The preparation tasted heavy-handed and uninspired, suggesting a significant deviation from authentic techniques. Furthermore, the operational aspects of the business are inconvenient and frankly, bizarre for a modern establishment. They only accept cash or bank transfer—a policy that feels incredibly outdated and restricts customers. Given the poor quality of the food and the strange limitations on payment, I will certainly not be returning. I cannot recommend this shop to anyone seeking genuine or even palatable Thai food.
